If the problem is with libgimp I think you will have to uninstall the old version of gimp to make it work. >From this article : http://lazyubuntu.com/how-to-install-gimp-267-on-ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope.html I assume that the gegl and babl libraries are included in one of the GetDeb packages. _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
